You know how a band comes to Seattle and plays Key Arena, but somehow you've completely missed their rise to power and barely know who they are? Tomorrow, Muse. Last year they were at the Paramount. more ›

The Hendrix family is feuding with itself again, this time over publicity rights. more ›

There's been many an ode penned to the backseat lovechild, but not so much the "caught in rush-hour traffic delivery." There in our news feed we spied the unusual byproduct of increased traffic congestion: roadside baby deliveries. In what the Seattle Times is calling a "rash of roadway births" (augh), the 4th King County Interstate-5 baby was delivered yesterday. more ›

Get to work you worthless layabouts, and quit mooching off unemployment. Once upon an unemployed summer, Seattlest got very familiar with the hoops you gotta jump through to keep those checks coming. At one point we had to attend a class somewhere on Aurora, but week to week we just had to keep a little job searching log and if that log ever showed that we failed to apply for two positions a week (or make two employer contacts or whatever), woe be unto us - We'd be cut off. That being at the start of the internet age, we actually sent out about a dozen resumes a week (which took about ten minutes), but when it came time to fill out the journal it was always easier to just make something up. It's one of the many little frauds that we're sure will one day catch up with us. more ›

If Seattlest had any female friends, we'd totally make them go with us to Salon Dewi tomorrow night: more ›

Rumors abound early this week concerning a most ghastly notion, a dark vision that has kept us sleepless: reportedly, both the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies called Mariners GM Bill Bavasi over the weekend to inquire about a potential trade for Ichiro. more ›

If Seattlest had an "Is this for real?" category this event listing would be firmly inside of it, and in fact we lobbied to have this category created but the argument that nearly every post on the site could potentially fall into it swayed the nay votes. Local novelty purveyor Archie Mcphee has been inducing riotously mild amusement with their action figures for years and Seattlest appreciates the Einstein, the Rosie and the son of god as much as anyone (which is to say, mild appreciation), but our response to Mcphee's Big Lo Super Fan action figure can be nothing but, "Is this for real?" more ›

Seattlest has no time. No time to contemplate our future. No time to mindlessly surf the internet. No time to pick blackberries, baby our sunburn, tune up our bike, while away the hours, smell the roses, make another pot of coffee, stop for a 12-pack on the way home, be annoyed by the Blue Angels or write this post. We certainly have no time to attend the Take Back Your Time North American Conference in Seattle today through Sunday. more ›

Ray Allen's desperation three point try at the end of last night's game looked on target as it arced toward the basket with the final buzzer sounding. more ›

Well, it happened. What Seattlest consistantly ridicules others for has fallen on ourselves and we are ticketless for the Decemberists' all-ages show tomorrow night. We should have known that that big piece in The Stranger was bad news and that all-ages tickets go fast. We should have known. If Seattlest were the Decemberists right now we'd work out a ditty about there being no room in steerage for our plagued family. more ›

If Seattlest had to guess where this man was arrested, our first try would be "His mom's house," but we'd estimate the charges to be something along the lines of stalking an ex. The first part we would have gotten right: Gerald Krein was arrested at his mother's mobile (nice touch!) home in Oregon Wednesday on charges stemming from an alleged mass suicide ring he fronted on the internet (damn internets). The scheduled date for the suicides is said to be Valentine's Day. more ›
